Using Interactive Maps

The Filament Bible App includes interactive maps that let you visually explore the biblical world. Zoom in on locations, toggle map layers, and tap places to discover events, photos, as well as historical context.

Opening a map

Interactive maps live inside See. Filter the dropdown to Maps, then tap one to open it.

  • Pinch, zoom, and pan to explore any area.

  • An info box gives general context; slide it down to minimize, or back up to bring it into view.

  • Tap the gray layers button to toggle overlays like healings, miracles, or modern borders, depending on the map.

  • Bold cities and regions with a dot or box are interactive. Tap one to see its boundary, a list of events there, and a photo. Tap the photo to enlarge it.

To close the map, grab the bar at the top and slide it down.
